[well. after he gets emotions back, he's absolutely hanging out at the bar-- everything sucks, thank you, and a little company's the best thing after a weekend like this one.]
...catching up after yesterday?
[he's sliding kuranosuke another drink, if his is starting to get low.]
It varies. You have the trolls, for example, they worship a larger number of specific animal spirits, or the tauren who worship the sun. Night elves, who my people are more or less cousins of, unsurprisingly worship the moon, and humans tend to follow the Light-- that one is what I have the most familiarity with, they taught some of my people how to channel it to heal, and... those who believed in it largely stayed with them when we withdrew to our own lands.
[his gloves fingers tap on the bartop. he's been drinking, he's wordy, i'm so sorry.]
I don't care for it. Seems hypocritical at this point-- you don't actually have to believe in the Light to wield it. It's a force and a tool, not something that cares for people who worship it, but that's the sort of philosophy that they encourage.
What was it they believed-- the earth birthed the sun and moon, and I suppose eventually set them in the sky? I'm not very familiar with their religion, there's something about believing the sun's light represents their Earth Mother's warmth in some way.
The Light is more of a force from beyond our worlds entirely. The beings that embody it-- they come from somewhere we've never been able to reach ourselves.
[well, that's new. kuranosuke's never been especially religious, nor has he really thought about the worship of nature rather than gods, but it's an interesting perspective even if it's not something rynlan is especially familiar with.]

[he is in fact running low on his drink, so he accepts it, tilts it briefly toward rynlan in thanks, and then drinks.]
I'm never taking a sobriety bet ever again. I'll let myself be sober once I'm not in hell anymore.

Not that they did too much else, anyway.

So the Light is like... aliens?
